FRANK E RUFUS

<p style="text-align: center;">It is with a heavy, saddened heart that Melvin T. Woods Sr. and the Woods Funeral Home staff announce the death of their beloved, eldest employee, Frank E. Rufus. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: center;">As an employee since 2003, Frank was well known in the funeral industry beginning his career with Swanson Funeral Home of Detroit, Michigan over 40 years ago.&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: center;">A well-dressed man of distinction, Frank held enough charisma to charm anyone he met and was known and loved by so many.&nbsp; He possessed a great sense of humor, loved his community and the funeral industry.&nbsp; He will be deeply missed.</p>
